I wanted to see how the 414 & SR78 measured up for overhead duties. Both work exceptionally well but with drastically different outcomes. I personally prefer the SR78’s. By design they roll off the lowend when not used as close spot mics. This is perfect when used with other individual drum mics. If one had to only use two mics, then the 414 would be a much fuller sound. With my setup I prefer the improved mid&high end clarity from the SR78’s when used in conjunction with others in a mix. Rides just sing with the sr78’s
Hey! nice sound.
Cool sound but I prefer the C414 as they give you more options in the mix. Both sounded great though.
The 414 sounds so Great!! Have You got a 4011 set You could record to compare with?
(Thx 4 great online presence.)
No don’t have any 4011’s. I have used them with great success in other studios.
diggin’ the new post count and frequency.
Sorry, I posted on your other page by mistake. Is the chain mics -> Hardy M1 -> Lynx? It wouldn’t surprise me 🙂
